Chapter 1: Introduction

Power

The typical blade enclosure features a 2200W power system composed of four, six, or eight power supply modules. An alternate configuration (and required for a full 10 or 20-blade system) features a total of four power supply modules for redundancy. This power redundancy feature allows you to replace the failing power module while the backup module takes over to keep the system running. You must have either two, four or eight power supply modules installed in the blade enclosure (eight is recommended in a full system).

The Chassis Management Module assumes the worst case (maximum) power for any model of blade prior to applying power. If the power supplies cannot supply that amount of the required power for the given load on the power supplies, then the CMM will not allow that unit to power up. After a blade is powered up, the blade’s BIOS calculates the actual power load required by the blade based upon the installed devices and informs the CMM of its requirements. The CMM then adjusts the remaining supply of power for additional blades based upon the actual delta of the total power, minus the amount of power being used by the blades that are powered on.

Middle Plane

The middle plane connects the various capabilities of the blades, such as the various speed switch(es) to Network Interface Controller(s), the Chassis Management Module (CMM) to the USB devices and the InfiniBand Switch to the Host Channel Adapters. These devices all connect to the middle plane through high density connectors that provide both signals and power. This type of configuration reduces the amount of system cabling and simplifies the task of setting up the system. It provides an alternative signals route to support redundant power, CMM, network and IPMI functions.

NOTE: Signaling information can NOT be physically routed from one blade to another.

LEDs

Two LEDs are located at the right top of the enclosure above the last or right most blade. The left LED provides Power Status information and the right LED is the Fault LED.

Enclosure Cooling

The cooling for the entire blade system is provided by the fans in the power supply modules or optional fans that can be installed in place of a power supply. If a power supply fails, its fans will continue to operate to provide continuous cooling. For this reason, a failed power supply should remain installed in the enclosure until a replacement unit is ready.

NOTE: Fans are controlled by Auto Mode or User Mode (User Mode from level 1 to 10).

WARNING: The fans are very noisy at full speed and it is recommended that they not be run

at full speed when in use in an office or near populated workstations.

1-7

8U SuperBlade User’s Manual

For the SBE-820C enclosures, three additional cooling fan modules, each with two cooling fans, are in the rear of the enclosure. Also, additional fan modules are available for substitution of power supply slots in the enclosure.

NOTE: In order to prevent air flow leaks that would reduce cooling efficiency in the blade system’s enclosure, install dummy blades to close off any blade slots that do not have active blade modules installed in them.

For overheat problems, check that there are no obstructions (such as poorly routed cables), check that all fans are operating normally and make sure the ambient room temperature is not too warm (refer to Section A-2: Environmental Specifications on

page A-2 for the maximum operating temperature). You can also use either of the blade

management software utilities to increase the fan speed and maximize system cooling.

In the event of a power overload, you will have to add additional power supply modules to take up the load. Otherwise, you will not be able to power up all the blade modules. The blade BIOS plus CMM firmware calculates the load to determine if the power supplies can adequately handle the total system configuration.

1-6 Power Supply Features

The 8U SuperBlade enclosure comes standard with one CMM module and up to eight power supplies. Information on the power supplies is summarized below. See

Section 4-1: Chassis Management Module on page 4-3 for details on the CMM module

and Chapter 5 for details on the power supplies.

If you install only four power supplies in the enclosure, they should be installed in the lower rather than the upper power bays. The reason for this counter-intuitive installation is that the power supplies in the lower bays provide increased airflow across the memory modules within each blade module. See the table below for details on the power supplies for the different models of enclosures.

Chapter 1: Introduction

Power Supply Modules

Each power supply module has its own power cord. Eight modules are required when the full complement of blade units are installed into an enclosure. An LED on the back of a power supply will be red when AC power is present and green when the power is on.

Supermicro's high-efficiency blade system power supplies deliver continuous redundant power up to 96% peak efficiency. Each power supply module includes a management module that monitors the power supplies and the power enclosure.

See Chapter 5 for specifications and details on the power supplies available for the SuperBlade system.

1-9

8U SuperBlade User’s Manual

Power Cord

Each power supply module has a C-20 type socket (IEC-60320-C20) for AC power and the power cord must have a C-19 type connector (IEC-60320-C19) to connect to the power supply.

A plastic locking clip partially covering the socket was designed to prevent the power supply module from being removed with the power cord still connected.

Refer to Appendix A for power/amperage calculation tables.Refer to the supermicro web

site for further details on power cords.

Power Supply Failure

If a power supply or a fan in a power supply fails, the system management software will notify you of the situation. In either case, you will need to replace the power supply module with another identical one. Please note that if a power supply fails, its fans will continue to operate to provide system cooling. For this reason, a failed power supply should remain installed in the enclosure until a replacement unit is ready.

See Chapter 5 for the procedure on replacing power supplies.

1-7 Special Design Features

Supermicro's 8U SuperBlade offers special design features, some of which no other blade server can duplicate. These features give you extraordinary flexibility in configuring a blade system for your own particular needs.

Operating System Support

Please check with the SMC web page for certified OS at: https://www.supermicro.com/

support/resources/OS/OS_Certification_Intel.cfm.

Remote Management

The Chassis Management Module (CMM) can manage the whole enclosure and any individual blade module by switching around to it.

NOTE: Some Blade modules already have onboard BMC.

An additional feature for the SBE-822 enclosures is an extra IPMI and Com port in card (part # FPB-FP820B-IPMI) that attaches to the left carry handle of the enclosure. This allows you a connection in the front of the enclosure for connection to the system.

Computing Density/Power

Dual and quad core processors are supported in the blade module systems. Each 8U SuperBlade mainboard supports two or four processors and up to 2 TB of main memory. This translates to a maximum potential of up to 40 processors and 61 TB of memory per 8U enclosure or 200 processors and 307 TB of memory for a 42U rack.

Chapter 1: Introduction

High-Efficiency Power Supplies

A reliable source of power is critical in server systems and even more so in a blade system, where up to fourteen systems (blades) share the same power source. 8U SuperBlade power supplies have been designed to operate at up to 96% peak efficiency and provide redundancy. Using high-efficiency power supplies results in a measurable reduction in wasted energy consumption and generated heat.

Chapter 3

Setup and Installation

3-1 Overview

This chapter provides a quick setup procedure for your 8U SuperBlade. Following these steps in the order given should enable you to have the system operational within a minimum amount of time. This quick setup assumes that the processor(s) and memory have already been installed. If not, please turn to Chapter 4 for details on installing specific components.

3-2 Unpacking the System

You should inspect the box the 8U SuperBlade was shipped in and note if it was damaged in any way. If the server itself shows damage you should file a damage claim with the carrier who delivered it.

Decide on a suitable location for the rack unit that will hold the 8U SuperBlade. It should be situated in a clean, dust-free area that is well ventilated. Avoid areas where heat, electrical noise and electromagnetic fields are generated. You will also need it placed near a grounded power outlet. Read the "Rack Precautions" and "Server Precautions" in the next section.

The box the 8U SuperBlade was shipped in should include two sets of rail assemblies, two handles and the mounting screws you will need to install the system into the rack. Follow the steps in the order given to complete the installation process in a minimum amount of time. Please read this section in its entirety before you begin the

installation procedure outlined in the sections that follow.

Choosing a Setup Location

The following are important considerations for choosing a setup location:

• Leave enough clearance in front of the rack to enable you to remove the blade units

(~25 inches).

• Leave approximately 30 inches of clearance behind or to the rear of the rack to

allow for sufficient airflow and ease in servicing, as well as clearance for electrical power connections.

• This product is intended for installation only in a Restricted Access Location

(dedicated equipment rooms, service closets and the like). This is because the 8U SuperBlade enclosure does not provide any physical security measures.

• This product is not suitable for use with visual display work place devices according

to §2 of the German Ordinance for Work with Visual Display Units.

WARNING: Please read the following important Warnings and Precautions!

3-1

8U SuperBlade User’s Manual

Rack Precautions

The following are important precautions concerning rack setup:

• The enclosure unit is heavy and requires at least two people to lift it.

• Ensure that the leveling jacks on the bottom of the rack are fully extended to the

floor with the full weight of the rack resting on them.

• In single rack installation, stabilizers should be attached to the rack.

• In multiple rack installations the racks frames should be grounded to the same earth

ground as the electrical source for the power supplies by means of a grounding strap.

Server Precautions

The following are important precautions concerning server setup:

• Review the electrical and general safety precautions in Chapter 2.

• Determine the placement of each component in the rack before you install the rails.

• Install the heaviest server components on the bottom of the rack first, and then work

up.

• Use a regulating uninterrupted power supply (UPS) to protect the server from power

surges, voltage spikes and to keep your system operating in case of a power failure.

• Allow the hot plug hard drives and power supply units to cool before touching them.

• Always keep the rack's front door and all panels and components on the servers

closed when not servicing to maintain proper cooling.

Rack Mounting Considerations

Below are listed important considerations for rack mounting.

Ambient Operating Temperature

If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the ambient operating temperature of the rack environment may be greater than the ambient temperature of the room. Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the manufacturer’s maximum rated ambient temperature. Refer to Appendix E for operating temperature specifications.

Reduced Airflow

Equipment should be mounted into a rack so that the amount of airflow required for safe operation is not compromised.

Mechanical Loading

Equipment should be mounted into a rack so that a hazardous condition does not arise due to uneven mechanical loading.

3-2

Chapter 3: Setup and Installation

Circuit Overloading

Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the power supply circuitry and the effect that any possible overloading of circuits might have on over-current protection and power supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern. See the power calculation tables in Appendix A.

Reliable Ground

A reliable ground must be maintained at all times. To ensure this, the rack itself should be grounded. Particular attention should be given to power supply connections other than the direct connections to the branch circuit (such as the use of power strips and so on).

NOTE: It is recommended that you seek the advice and assistance of a licensed electrician that can advise you on best practices for ensuring that the electrical supply and the rack are joined to a Common Bonding Network.

Professional documents on grounding techniques include:

• ANSI/TIA-942 – Telecommunications Infrastructure Standard for Data Centers

• J-STD-607-A-2002 – Commercial Building Grounding (Earthing) and Bonding

Requirements for Telecommunications

• IEEE Std 1100™-2005 (IEEE Emerald Book) – IEEE Recommended Practice for

Powering and Grounding Electronic Equipment

Installing the System Into a Rack

This section provides information on installing the 8U SuperBlade into a rack. There are a variety of rack units on the market, meaning the procedure may differ slightly. Refer to the Enclosure Template that was included with the system for help.

Rack Mounting Hardware

The following is a list of rack mounting hardware you will need for rack setup and installation:

• Two rail assemblies (one for each side of the enclosure)

• Two handles

• Four roundhead screws for fastening the enclosure ears to the rack

• Eight flathead screws and washers for mounting the rails to the rack

3-3

8U SuperBlade User’s Manual

Installation

Use the procedure below for installing an enclosure in a rack.

Installing an enclosure:

1. Decide where you want to place the blade enclosure into the rack (see "Rack

Mounting Considerations" in the previous section).

2. Position the Enclosure Template at the front of the enclosure to determine the

locations of the screws for the enclosure rails (see Figure 3-1).

Figure 3-1. Positioning the Enclosure Template

3. The two enclosure rail sections are screwed together to keep them immobile during

shipping. Release these screws just enough to allow the rails to slide apart. Note the arrow on the rail, which indicates the end that attaches to the front of the rack.

4. Slide the rails apart far enough to match the depth of the rack. Position the rails with

the template and secure the front of each to the front of the rack with two flathead screws, then secure the back of each rail to the rear of the rack with two flathead screws (see Figure 3-2). Note that the rails are left/right specific and very heavy.

Figure 3-2. Securing the Rails to the Rack

5. (Optional step) Add the front left and right handles to the enclosure using five

screws to secure each handle. Install a thumbscrew through the bottom hole of each handle (see Figure 3-3).

3-4

Chapter 3: Setup and Installation

NOTE: These handles are optional and need only be installed when mounting the system into a short rack. When mounting into a deep rack, they are unnecessary and regular screws should be used instead of thumbscrews.

Be aware that these handles are not to be used for lifting the system, they are only to be used to slide the system within the rack.

6. With one person on either side (see the descriptive label on the side of the

enclosure), lift the enclosure and slide it into the installed rails.

WARNING: Be sure that the enclosure is empty of all blades, power supplies, switches and management modules BEFORE lifting. These should be installed AFTER the enclosure is mounted in the rack. Injury and damage may occur if components are not removed from the rack prior to installation.

7. After pushing the enclosure all the way into the rack, use two roundhead screws on

each side of the server to lock it into place.

Figure 3-3. Attaching the Optional Handles

8. The enclosure is now securely installed in the rack (see Figure 3-4).

Chapter 4: System Modules

Chapter 4

System Modules

In addition to the blade units, your blade system comes equipped with one or more system modules. The modules fit into the rear of the enclosure into bays above and/or below the power supplies. This chapter describes the various blade modules that may be part of your blade system. Module configurations can be customized; you can install two of the same type module for redundancy purposes or you may omit a module altogether (except for the CMM, which is a required module). Figure 4-1 shows a typical module configuration in a blade system. See Chapter 5 for information on power supply modules.

WARNING: All module bays must be populated either with a module or a dummy module cover to maintain proper airflow.

Chapter 4: System Modules

4-1 Chassis Management Module

The Chassis Management Module (CMM) (Figure 4-3) is a required module in a blade system. This “command” module communicates with the blade units, the power supplies and the blade switches. Used in conjunction with the Web Interface or IPMI View management software, the CMM provides administrator control over individual blade units, power supplies, cooling fans and networking switches and monitors onboard temperatures, power status, voltage levels and fan speeds. The standard CMM module for the 8U SuperBlade system is the MBM-CMM-FIO or MBM-CMM-001.

NOTE: Using the MBM-CMM-FIO in the enclosure allows the use of the two front mounted RJ45 ports on the enclosure, however using the MBM-CMM-001 does not allow these ports to function.

The CMM provides a dedicated, local and remote KVM (keyboard/video/mouse) connection over an out of band TCP/IP Ethernet network during any server state (functioning, blue-screen, powered down, BIOS and so on). It also supports Virtual Media (VM) redirection for CD, floppy and USB mass storage devices and configures such information as the switch IP addresses. A summary of CMM features is shown in

Table 4-3.

Module Redundancy

A blade system must have one CMM and may have two for redundancy is offered only on a specific enclosure model, which has the hardware capability to incorporate two CMM's on one backplane. Since the CMM uses its own processor, all monitoring and control functions are carried out regardless of the operation or power status of the blade units. CMM modules can only be installed in the upper and/or lower right module bays.

Determining Master/Slave Modules Status

When a blade system has two CMM modules, they are assigned a master/slave status. This is done automatically with the default primary CMM specified for per each enclosure, while there will be no redundant in certain enclosures.

If the master CMM is powered down or removed (or is being reset by its user), the second (slave) CMM module will then immediately be assigned as the master. The redundant CMM mode is only offered on specific chassis models. The slave uses the previous master IP config in case of a fail over.

NOTE: The Slave CMM keeps the same log/status as the Master CMM and uses the previous master IP config.

CMM Module Installation

Use this procedure to install the MBM-CMM-FIO or MBM-CMM-001 CMM module to the 8U SuperBlade chassis. Make sure the cover to the module has been installed before proceeding. Follow the anti-static precautions described in Chapter 2.

Installing the Module:

1. Remove the dummy cover from the bay you want to place the module in.

2. Place the module's release handle in the open position.

3. Slide the module into the module bay until it stops.

4. Push the release handle to the closed position.

4-5

8U SuperBlade User’s Manual

5. After the module has been installed and the handle locked, it will turn on and a

POST test will run to verify it is working properly.

Removing the Module:

1. Pull out the release handle to the open position.

2. Pull the module out of the bay.

3. Replace immediately with another module or with a dummy module cover to

maintain airflow integrity.

Configuring the CMM

To access/configure the CMM, you first have to configure the IP settings of the CMM depending on you network environment. The below procedure for this configuration just serves as a reference for getting the CMM setup. If your system has Linux OS, please follow similar instructions to get the CMM setup.

The CMM access topology is as follows:

DHCP Access:

1. Connect a network cable to the CMM module.

2. The system should boot into the default Fail Over mode. The DHCP mode will

appear on the CLI mode screen.

3. If the system fail over and CLI is not active, it will proceed to the next default IP of

CMM at https//192.168.100.100.

4. If the CMM cannot enter the default IP, then an RJ45/USB cable can be connected

from the CMM's RJ45 Ethernet LAN Port to the Desktop Host using the USB Port in Serial Port mode with a speed set at 115200. The DHCP IP can be manually set at the same subnet-mask for gateway access at 192.168.100.100.01.

Default IP Access:

1. Connect network cable to the network port at CMM.

2. At system Prompt, https://192.168.100.100

Requirements are:

• Computer system with LAN (RJ45) port

• RJ -45 Ethernet cable

The default IP of the CMM is https://192.168.100.100. Configure the Computer system (connected through Ethernet-LAN to the CMM) to the same address range (for example https://192.168.100.101). The default mode is the Fail Over mode. If the DHCP fails, then the CMM will automatically default to the IP address of the CMM.

Configuring the CMM in Windows OS:

1. Go to START  CONTROL PANEL  NETWORK CONNECTIONS

2. Right-click on LAN to view properties.

Chapter 4: System Modules

CMM Functions

The following sections describe local functions and remote functions of the CMM. With only minor exceptions, all of the remote functions can be performed by one of three mechanisms: web-based access to the CMM module, access to the CMM using IPMIview, a client tool implemented in Java, or via IPMItool commands (DOS commands or shell scripted commands).

When the web based browser is used, the CMM acts as a web server, requiring a higher bandwidth connection to the CMM. If there are any bandwidth constraints, IPMI will provide a superior experience. Additionally, since graphical updates are provided by client-side Java, IPMIview can also be a superior user experience.

IPMItool on the other hand can provide the ability to issue similar/identical commands to many 8U SuperBlade enclosures/CMM’s to manage all of them in a similar way.

Remote KVM over IP

Remote KVM over IP is independent from local KVM (although local KVM can operate in parallel with Remote KVM). Remote KVM encrypts all communication between the remote user and the CMM.

To Use: Remote KVM over IP is initiated with the management software (IPMI View or Web-based utility). Attach the LAN cable to the LAN port on the CMM module then refer to "Web-based Management Utility" on page 4-12 to login and use either utility.

Remote Storage (Virtual Media)

The Remote Storage function allows the user to connect to a remote storage device (such as a floppy, hard disk, or USB storage device) and access the device as if it were local. This can be used not only to read and write to remote storage devices but to load an operating system from a remote drive.

Serial Over LAN (SOL)

Serial Over LAN allows you to redirect the input and output of a serial port via IPMI in order to manage blade modules from a remote location.

To Use: Serial Over LAN can be activated via the Web-based Management utility. See the Web-based Management Utility User’s Manual for the procedure to initiate SOL.

Monitoring Functions

Used in conjunction with IPMI or the Web-based Management utility, the CMM module can monitor and provide information on the hardware health of the blade modules and the system as a whole. In addition to the monitoring functions, you can remotely power on, power off or reboot a system.

Health information includes:

• Temperature levels

• Fan speeds

4-9

8U SuperBlade User’s Manual

• Voltage levels

• Power status

Power Consumption Management

The CMM module’s firmware can also control all power on/off activity in the whole blade system. This is done by using the Power button, onboard BMC or from any other use of remote management software.

Once a blade module is installed in the enclosure the installed CMM immediately receives information on the rated Max Power Consumption value of the new blade module. The CMM then calculates whether there is enough power for this new blade module by comparing the Max Power Consumption value of the new blade module with the calculated Remaining Power value of the system.

If there is enough power, the CMM will power on the blade. However if there is not enough power in the blade system, then the new blade module is not powered on and the front panel LED on the enclosure will blink.

After the blade is powered on, the CMM then collects the actual power consumption of this individual blade and updates the calculated Remaining Power value for the system.

The CMM also reserves power for all the networking and chassis management modules installed on the system.

WARNING: One CMM module must be running to control the power systems and prevent overloading.

To reset the CMM to factory defaults, press and hold the Reset button for five seconds.

Firmware

The firmware for the CMM switch resides in the module. This firmware can be updated with the web-based management utility.

Within the utility, go to the MAINTENANCE > UPDATE FIRMWARE screen in the Web-based Management Utility. Here you can enter the name of the firmware you want to update or click on BROWSE to select the firmware file. Finish by clicking the UPLOAD button.

NOTE: This process is not reversible once the firmware is updated, so proceed with caution. It might take a few minutes to complete this procedure.

Web-based Management Utility

System management may be performed with either of three software packages: IPMIview, SMCIPMItool or a Web-based Management Utility. Any of these utilities are designed to provide an administrator with a comprehensive set of functions and monitored data to keep tabs on the system and perform management activities.

The Web-based Management Utility is a web-based interface that consolidates and simplifies system management for Supermicro 8U SuperBlade systems. The Web-based Management Utility aggregates and displays data from the CMM module.

The Web-based Management Utility provides the following key management features:

• Enables IT administrators to view in-depth hardware configuration and status

information using a single intuitive interface.

• Provides an OS-independent, remote graphical console.

• Allows remote users to map local media (floppy, removable disks and hard drives)

or ISO images on a shared network drive to a blade server.

Power Supply Modules

The 8U SuperBlade enclosure comes standard with one CMM module (see the

Chapter 4 for details on the CMM module) and either two or four power supplies. See Appendix A for summary specification details on the power supplies available to the 8U

SuperBlade enclosure.

5-1 Power Supply Modules

The minimum amount of modules required to power the system depends upon the full complement of blade units installed into an enclosure and the type of switches installed in the enclosure. An LED on the back of a power supply will be amber when AC power is present and green when the power is on.

When installing only a few power supplies in the enclosure, they should be installed first in the lower rather than the upper power bays. This is to provide increased airflow across the memory modules within each blade module.

The 2200W power supply modules require a 200-240V AC input and a C20 socket, which requires a power cord with a C19 connector.

Supermicro's high-efficiency blade system power supplies deliver continuous redundant power up to 94% peak efficiency. Each power supply module includes a management module that monitors the power supplies and the power enclosure

The features of these power supplies are shown below.

Power Supply Failure

NOTE: Refer to www.supermicro/products/superblade for possible updates on part numbers.

Installing a Power Supply

1. Insert a replacement unit into the empty power bay with the handle to the left.

WARNING: This left/right orientation depends on the power supply’s top or bottom location. If you inadvertently put a power supply upside down in the lower slots, it can be VERY difficult to remove the power supply.

2. Push unit all the way in until it is firmly seated.

3. Push the handle back into the closed position until it clicks into the locked position.

4. Move the locking clip away from the socket and reconnect the power cord.

Removing a Power Supply

First, make sure the power supply has been shut down. You can remove power from a power unit via your system management software.

1. Remove the power cord from the power supply unit.

2. Release the locking clip to unlock the power supply module.

5-4

Chapter 5: Power Supply Modules

3. Pull out the handle and remove the unit: the two-piece handle locks into the closed

position. To release the handle, squeeze together the two metal plates of the handle with your thumb and fingers and then pull out.

5-2 Redundant Power Supplies

Each blade enclosure can hold up to four power supplies. Installing all four power supplies may provide you with redundant power – depending upon the number of blades in the enclosure, the model and power level of the power supplies installed and the power load from modules in your system. In most blade enclosure systems power supplies may be redundant and therefore provide backup in case of power supply failure. The configuration for power redundancy is created using the IPMIView application tool for the system.

For purposes of denoting the amount of redundancy, a server system has N main power supplies to support the whole system working, with a “+” number after the N denoting the number of redundant power supplies. Hence, if there is one power supply for redundancy in a system that has the feature of “redundant power”, the total of power supplies for that server system is denoted as N+1.

For example, suppose a 10-blade system has four 2200 Watt Power Supply Units (PSU), for a total power supply of 8800 Watts. The maximum power usage of each blade is 375 Watts for a total power demand of 3750 Watts to run the whole system. So in this example there are effectively two redundant power supplies (N+1) over what is needed to power the blades in the system.

In the IPMIView tool you can set the priority (default CPU power usage) of each blade first before any PSU fails (0%->shut down, 50%->throttling, 100%->Running). See

Figure 5-3 below for an example.

Figure 5-3. Power Supply Status

5-5

8U SuperBlade User’s Manual

Therefore the following redundancies apply to your system when, as an example, 2200W power supplies fail.

• If one PSU fails, then you have 6600 Watts available. The CMM will detect the

remaining power left for the whole system. But because the total blade power usage is only 3750 Watts, every blade can still work properly.

• If 2 PSUs fail, then only 4400 Watts are left available to support the blade power

usage. The system can still support all ten blades running in it.

• If 3 PSUs fail, then the remaining 2200 Watts available cannot support the whole

system. Therefore the CMM will start to shut down or throttle down the load in order to keep blades running based upon the priority settings that were made for each blade using the IPMIView application until the load is enough to power the remaining blade modules.

5-3 Power Supply Fans

Each power supply unit has two to four rear fans. These fans are not hot-swappable. If one fails, the power supply will continue to operate but you should replace the power supply unit at the earliest opportunity. If two or more fans fail, the power supply unit will shut down and the LED on the back will turn amber.
